New NWO Security & Rule of Law call on the influence of transnational challenges in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Settings (€ 100,000)

NWO-WOTRO Science for Global Development published a new call within the research programme Security & Rule of Law. Deadline of submissions is January 5, 2016. The Call for applied research on the influence of transnational challenges in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Settings aims to strengthen the evidence-base of policies and/or programming for Security & Rule of Law in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Settings addressing the influence of transnational flows on stability in these settings.The call focuses on research projects that provide new evidence based and applicable insights and knowledge for practitioners and is part of the Applied Research Fund within the research programme Security & Rule of Law in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Setting.
 
Each research project should contribute to two objectives:

(Develop tools that) provide new evidence-based insights to enhance the effectiveness of policies and/or programming for Security & Rule of Law addressing the effects of transnational flows on stability in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Settings (FCAS). Targeted FCAS are: Afghanistan, Burundi, Central African Republic, Chad, Cote d’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of the Congo, East Timor, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iraq, Jordan, Kenia, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Palestinian Territories, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, Uganda, Ukraine, Yemen. However, a regional focus, comparative research and research into the role of and relation with developed countries in these transnational flows is encouraged;
Unlock the knowledge generated by this research for practitioner organisations involved in policy and/or its implementation (programming) on Security & Rule of Law in FCAS as listed, in such a way that these organisations can easily apply such knowledge for (re-)designing relevant, conflict-sensitive, and effective Security & Rule of Law reform policies and/or programming in those FCAS.

Total budget of the call is € 1,000,000. Funding of a research project is up to € 100,000 for a project duration of six months. Projects must be carried out by practitioners and researchers from various disciplines and backgrounds and is directed by a consortium. The consortium must consist of at least one research organisation and one practitioner organisation. The practitioner organisation must be involved in the design and/or implementation of policies for security and rule of law reform programmes in fragile and conflict-affected settings (FCAS) and whose knowledge demand is addressed by the consortium.
